Dr. Sr.
I have to tell you of my
safe arrival at home on Sunday last in good health.
I wrote you from Painesville which letter I presume
you have rec'd by your Wm.
I have the inclose for your endorsement
one of the missionary orders rec'd of you which
you must have forgotten to endorse when I need it
& which will not be pd until your endorse
ment is on it. Please do the [?ful] of
returning it by mail.
Our journey was on the whole very good
& much more pleasant on account of weather
than we could have expected. The
hospitality [?] of yourself &
Mrs. L to whom present my best respects. I will
with pleasure be remembering by me
in hopes at some future time to retal-
liate at least in some measure for it.
Respectfully yours,
Lem G. Storrs
